how about asking your therapist to make a relaxation type recording for you to listen to. My therapist just a few weeks ago recorded a couple relaxation exercises and it helps me alot. Came in real handy last night, today and right now I am listening to one of then while typing this.

Do you like any type of animals? I know my cat is the biggest coward on earth so much so that when a friend stayed here for a couple weeks she bought a little pet store mouse and the result was my cat hid under the bed. LOL I find that funny considering he befriends guinea pigs and birds but anyway peting, playing with and taking care of my cat helps alot.
